Default shifter feelin really loose

so one of my many problems with my swap is my shift linkage. i can shift into any gear ok, but when im in gear i can still move the shift **** around... ex. 1st gear and can move the shifter to the right where 3rd would be. im using avid racing shift linkage and wanna know if anyone else has noticed this... i also am using a bolt to connect the shift linkage because i havent had time to get the expanding pin from honda. anyone have that part number by any chance?

**** I did have that part # but lost it. I'll try to get it for you, it's probably part of the problem. New shift linkage bushings may help as well, a nice tight shifter makes it feel much better to drive.

The bolt is your problem....order a new spring pin.
Use http://www.slhondaparts.com to get the part number.

Im using the "teach a man to fish" method here, rather than just telling you the part number
